Abstract:
A simple method for the simultaneous determination of creatine, uric acid, creatinine and hippuric acid in urine using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography was described. Chromatography was performed on a Nova-Pak C18 (3.9 x 150 mm) column with a mobile phase of 0.02 mol/L KH2PO4, and UV detection at 220 nm. The recoveries of creatine, uric acid, creatinine and hippuric acid were 103.13, 99.86, 98.26 and 98.24%, respectively. The calibration curves were linear within the concentration range of 2-200 micrograms/mL for creatine, uric acid and hippuric acid, and 2-400 micrograms/mL for creatinine. The detection limits of the method were 0.69, 0.21, 0.10 and 0.095 microgram/mL for creatine, uric acid, creatinine and hippuric acid, respectively. This method has been applied to the analysis of urine samples from normal subjects and some patients.

High-Performance Liquid Chromatography: Introduction
In HPLC, two phases play a critical role in the separation process:
Renal Clearance
Renal clearance refers to the volume of plasma cleared of a specific substance, such as creatinine, per unit of time. To measure clearance, urine samples are collected over a 24-hour period during each bladder voiding, followed by a single blood sample at the...
Factors Affecting Renal Clearance: Renal Impairment
One condition associated with renal failure is uremia. Uremia is characterized by impaired glomerular filtration and fluid accumulation in the body. This condition hinders the renal clearance of drugs, resulting in drug accumulation and potential...
Determination of Renal Drug Clearance: Graphical and Midpoint Methods
The graphical method involves plotting the rate of drug excretion in urine against the plasma drug concentration. By analyzing the graph, the clearance can be calculated and obtained. Drugs rapidly excreted by the kidneys exhibit a...
